Martyrium - Awakening The Ancient lyrics

Mountains mask the tomb of thy eternal sleep Guarded by the Seven Stars of Divine Power Invoked only by the abominations of the abyss Hordes of Utukki! The world will cower! Xastur! Beloved of the ancient Thy name is called! Awake and come to me! Absu! Berth of all ancient evil Stir the depths! Send forth your legions! Kutulu rise from the seas of Nar Mattaru To thy covenant you must hold firm Sons of iniquity embrace your oath Fulfill the prophecy in the Book of the Worm Ninghizhidda heed my pledge! Sorceress of the Magick Wand Those who dwell beyond the gate I came to seek beneath the sand Hear me dormant spirit! Scourge of madness from your throne! Open gate of Ganzir! Watcher of the land unknown! Ia! Thou who art before all things Ia! Born before man's reign begun Ia! Thou art before legend and myth Ia! Thou who art the ancient one! In the name of Shammash! In the name of Ishtar! Seven stars of seven powers Ever-shining North Star Iak sakkak Kutulu! Come to me o ancient one! Remember minions of the Great Old War Beware the knower of the secret names For all must perish for his power to restore He wields the chariot with the disc of flames! Guardians of the gates heed my calling Answer to no other voice but mine! For I have awoken the dead but dreaming Resist.... and d**h shalt be thine! May the dead rise And smell the incense of my curse! I summon thee... Creatures of hatred and despise I summon thee... My words shall shatter the gate within! The serpent awakes from silent slumber Mother and queen of the world down under The Absu yawns with jaws wide open Behold the uprise of the ancient demon! Xastur! Beloved of the ancient Thy name is called! Awake and come to me! Absu! Berth of all ancient evil Stir the depths! Send forth your legions!
